Yeah, I don't get it. Why doesn't an account automatically come with, let's say, a $100/mo default cap. And also a $25/day default cap. Someone playing around would just leave those defaults alone and thereby not wind up looking like a total fool. Using Wikipedia for a guide, a micro instance only costs $0.013 per hour. An instance with 30 GiB memory and 8 cores only costs $1.00 per hour. So the cap numbers I suggested would work fine for many people. For some reason Amazon allows people to shoot themselves in the foot too easily. Yes, they usually? waive the charges, but it seems like such a waste of resources, overall. It wouldn't be so bad if bitcoin mining were more profitable. But $1000 spent at Amazon probably mines $10 or less in bitcoin. What a waste of energy.
